HOMEMADE HORSERADISH
Horseradish is one of those things that can be either really popular, or very unpopular. I happen to love it, and eat it 'til the tears run down my face! A bit of really pungent horseradish will do wonders for your sinuses! Beware: a little bit will go a long way! Homemade horseradish can be much stronger than the store-bought...

Steps:
- 1. Rinse the horseradish tuber; trim the ends, and peel it with a vegetable peeler, just as you would a carrot.
- 2. Chop into small cubes (1/2", or so) and put into a blender or a food processor. [you can also do this on the "fine" end of your grater, but make sure the area is well-ventilated, and protect your eyes from the aeration of the juices!!] If doing in a blender/food processor, add 2 Tbsp. water, and process on high, until it is well ground. NOTE: Be very careful from this point on. It can be very harsh on your eyes. Ground, fresh horseradish is very pungent, much stronger than a fresh cut-up onion, and can burn! Work from an arm's-length away, and make sure it is a well-ventilated area.
- 3. Pour off some of the water if the mixture is too runny. Add a tablespoon of white vinegar and a pinch of salt to the mixture. Pulse a few more times to combine. NOTE: the vinegar will sort of "put a stop" to the heat of the ground horseradish, so do not hesitate too long before adding it to the mixture. It stabilizes the ground horseradish.
- 4. After you have added the vinegar and let it sit for a few minutes, you might have a lot of liquid ... strain it out, for storage of the horseradish. [I use a coffee filter ... just line your colander w/ a coffee filter, pour in the horseradish & liquids, and let it sit for awhile. The watery part will strain thru the filter, leaving you with the ground-up horseradish.
- 5. Using a spatula, carefully transfer the ground horseradish to a small, glass jar with a secure fitting lid. This will store several weeks in your refrigerator. This is fabulous on prime rib, steaks of all kinds, shrimp, pork, and even in some marinades and dipping sauces ... just use your imagination!

Steps:
- 1. crumble your beef and sausage into a large bowl, add the panko breadcrumbs, egg, horseradish and a little salt and pepper. Form into meatballs. I made about 18 meatballs. The size is up to you.
- 2. Drizzle enough olive oil to cover the bottom of your skillet and brown the meatballs, both sides, on medium heat. Remove from pan and keep warm.
- 3. Drain some of the excess oil off but not all as you will be need some to saute your mushrooms and onions. This will take only a few minutes. Next stir in about 2 1/2 tablespoons of flour, 2 tablespoons of paprika, cook for an additional 2 minutes and then add your beef broth and bring to a boil. Season with more pepper and add the meatballs and cook for about 8 minutes or until the broth gets slightly thick remove from heat and mix in the sour cream. Serve over noodles, rice or mashed potatoes.
- 4. Left camera at home, will post picture tomorrow. :)

Steps:
- Place diced horseradish in a food processor; add a splash of cold water. Pulse on and off until mixture begins to blend. Scrape down sides of food processor container (the fumes are very strong, so keep your face away from the bowl and the room well ventilated).
- Continue blending, adding a bit more water if mixture seems too dry. Process until horseradish is finely ground. Wait 2 minutes before adding the vinegar and salt; supposedly this makes the horseradish hotter. After 2 or 3 minutes, add vinegar and salt. Continue processing until mixture is smooth and creamy or to your desired consistency, adding more water if necessary. Transfer to airtight storage containers. Refrigerate.

- When grating the horseradish, use a food processor or a microplane grater to get the finest results.

- Serve the horseradish sauce immediately or store it in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
- Horseradish sauce is a great condiment for beef, fish, and pork. It can also be used as a dipping sauce for vegetables or crackers.
